Hello all, I'd like to know if the autovacuum feature also deals with automatically reindexing my indexes. I know Pg8 know comes with a more eficient management of indexes, but I also read in the manuals that it's still good practice to routine reindex de most critical (in terms of speed) indexes. Could someone please tell me if autovacuum does or doesnt take care of reindexing, or if reindexing is or isn't important in pg8. thx++; Joao ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
